Important 10 the WnDIc Northwest

The Minneapolis Journal speaking
of the Sault convention says "Ihe
Importance of such facilities TO the
whole northwest we cannot overesti-
mate. A commodious water route from
Duluth to the east means cheaper
transportation and hence more money
TO the farmer for every bushel Of wheat
and more money to the miner for
every ton Of ore 1t means less cost
to everybody for coal and other com
nodjGes that We bring from the east.
These advantages viii accrue to MIN
nesota and Dakota and the farther
west, and will correspondingly stimu-
late the trade Of the east. Common
Justice and common sense demand
that congress lay aside its dribbling
policy and make appropriations big
enough to finish the enlargement Of
the Sault Ste. Marie canal promptly.

At Ashland recently, they laid
the corner stone of the Vaughan Pub
lie Library, on which occasion Hon.
Sam. Fifield, of the Press, delivered
the address, in the course of which he
very truthfully said:
Next to the church and the school
the public library marks, and stands
rs an evidence of the intelligence,
morality and progressiyeness of Il
people, and this institution which is to
rise on these foundation walls, is one
destined greatly to assist in the i'm

TO maintain a proper and intelligent
standard to guide safely through life

THE OREGON SHORT LINE,
1t Is About to Become What Its Pro.
jectOrs Intended 1t to BE.

AS intimated in the TIMES about q
week"ago, the higher officials along
the Oregon Short Line have for some
time been figuring upon new sched-
ule which would reduce the running
time of trains between Omaha and
Portland. The new time table is in the
hands of the printer, and will be sent
out of Omaha this week. 1t reduces
the time of through trains between
Omaha and Portland "a hours. Pas
senger trains are to run at a speed Of
45 miles per hour, including all stop
pages. In order to tighten the trains
but one Pullman sleeper will leave
Omaha on each train, except when
two are absolutely indispensable. No
emigrant cars will be sent out with
mail trains, as at present. When
travel gets heavy the company will
send out two light overland trains
from Omaha daily, instead of one
heavy one of II to Is cars. These
changes are expected to bring over
the Oregon Short Line fully one half
of the passenger traffic Of the Pacific
Northwest, besides heavy percentage
of that to and from Northern Wash
ington and Northern California.
In order to divide the Montana and
Idaho traffic with the Northern Pa
ci6c, the gauge of the Utah & North
ern north of Pocatello has been
widened, and on and after the 9th
instant the portion Of the Utah &
Northern above described will be op.
Grated by brcad-gauge trains, which
wiz conAect at Pocatello with the
Oregon Short Line. The part of the
Utah & Northern between Pocatello
and Ogden will remain narrow-gauge,
and passengers and freight from the
south and west will be transferred at
Ogden and Pocatello.
In about two weeks the Oregon
Short Line will therefore become
what its projectors intended it to be,
to-wit: tie great transcontinental ar
terry for the traffic Of the Northern
half of the Pacific slope and coast.

that Fuller was going to murder the
all. No. said Fuller, Il meant to Kill
only the bishop
"The Indians arranged the BODY as
well as they could aud went with
Fuller to Noulata. The Indians had
forewarned Frederickson there of the
tragedy, but Fuller informed him al
once that he had killed the bishop,
Frederickson sent the men to camp
for the body, which was taken as
soon as possible to St. Michael's. The
coffin was enclosed there in q
zinc casket. 1t could not be brought
down on this steamer. 1t is at the
Russian chapel and will probably re-
main there.
THE MISERABLE MAN.
Fuller accompanied the body to St.
Michael's and offered to give himself
up. A warrant will be taken back
for his arrest, and he will be taken to
Sitka and tried. / saw him but once
since my return. 1 could not speak
to him. He confesses his crime free.
ly and cries about it. We have kept
the witnesses at St. Michael's and
they will appear at the trial"
Father Tassi came down on the
Dora for instructions with reference
to the prosecution of the murderer
and other matters in connection with
the bishops death. The Dora left
Sitka on June 16 and St. Michael's on
June 26. Father Tassi is making ar,
engagements to leave for Portland
Wednesday.
MUCH INDIGNATION.
Father Tassi, in an interview, said:
"The utmost Indignation prevailed
among the white residents on the
Yukon and at St. Michael's over the
murder, and upon the arrival of the
steamer the feeling was intensified.
The priest of the Russo Greek church
had the body placed in his old church,
and there it will lie until the steamer
Bear takes it to Victoria for burial.
Fuller confessed bis crime, and is now
penitent, but what impelled him to
shoot our good father l cannot con-
ceive. Fuller is not in any way crazy
or foolish, as he told the Indians he
did not wish to kill them, he only
wanted to shoot the archbishop. Up
on arrival of the steamer Dora at S..
Michael's l took passage for Ouna-
laska and there l obtained a warrant
for Fuller's arrest. Captain Healy
will serve the warrant and take Full
Ter to Ounalaska to be examined by
the commissioner, who will send him
for trial to Sitka with witnesses"
Solemn high mass of requiem will

soul of the late archbishop at St.
